Partner closely with the product management team to frame problems, define project scope, explore multiple design approaches, and make well-reasoned recommendations

Conduct user research and usability testing to validate design decisions and understand user goals
When challenges arise, proactively align stakeholders, propose solutions, and adjust scope as needed
